Dedicated to Maine's groundwater industry
The Maine Groundwater Association is made up of water well drilling and water pump contractors from across the state. Our members are highly trained experts in such services as well drilling, pump systems, filtration, testing, inspection, geothermal and hydro-fracturing.
The Maine Groundwater Association is dedicated to the continuing education of its members and to educating the public about Maine groundwater. We work with government agencies and communities to solve ground water use issues and to protect future resources.
Our membership is committed to meeting Maine's ground water needs. Membership is your assurance that your contractor has met the training requirements of the association. Learn more about membership.
